Is there any way to become Getty video contributor if you upload to other agencies and have iStock non-exclusive account?

Only if you film a shoot for RM/RR - Rights Managed or Rights Ready. Not RF.
I think these also need to be exclusive so u can't upload the RM to Other agencies.

That's how I understand it anyway.

Does that only apply to being a direct contributor? I found my videos from IS ported to Getty, which are all RF at multiple sites.

Were you exclusive with istock at the time? That shouldn't happen if you have always been non-exclusive! If you were exclusive then the files you uploaded during your exclusivity will stay on Getty.

No, all Getty contents are exclusive.
